An insurer may provide payments when claims are made in connection with an insurance policy. For example, an insurance customer who is injured while visiting a business may contact an insurance company requesting payment in connection with a liability or group benefit insurance policy that was purchased by the business. Similarly, an insurance customer who was involved in an automobile accident may contact an insurance company requesting payment in connection with his or her automobile insurance policy. In addition to submitting new insurance claims, insurance customers might contact an insurance company for any of a number of other reasons, such as to inquire about the current status of a previously filed claim, to ask about a hypothetical situation, to determine office hours, etc. The insurer may assign a service representative to communicate with an insurance customer to receive relevant information about a new or existing insurance claim (e.g., party names and addresses, accident details, injury information, etc.) and/or to help the customer in other ways.
In one approach, a service representative receives training and/or customer care documents to help him or her respond to customer requests appropriately. This, however, may be a time consuming process and can lead to errors or delays while interacting with the customer, especially when there are a substantial number of customer requests, of many different types, that need responses. For example, an insurer might receive tens of thousands of insurance customer telephone calls (which might represent a substantial number of different types of team member interactions with customers). It would therefore be desirable to provide systems and methods to facilitate interactions between insurance customers and service representatives in an automated, efficient, and accurate manner.
